Stop the eviction: 3 months of rent for Ronaldo's family in Rio de Janeiro
The closure of the factory left Ronaldo short on rent for 3 months; help us stay in our home.

When the textile factory closed in August, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Wednesday a final eviction notice was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $1,050.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by November, we must leave.
I have two young children at home. Moving isn't just an expense - it would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else.
I have started working two part-time jobs, and I'm applying for help from local services, but nothing will arrive in time without the rest of the gap covered here.
The money will be paid directly to the landlord and I'll upload the receipt once it's done.
Where the $1,050 goes:
• First month of rent as a buffer: $330
• Late fees and court costs: $40
• Rent arrears (3 months): $680
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Wishing you peace, Ronaldo. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. God bless.
Wishing you peace, Ronaldo. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. My neighbor in Bursa donated after I showed her your page.
hope you get there. Wish I lived closer to Asaba so I could bring a meal. Take care.
praying for you, Ronaldo. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. It's not much but it's yours. Love from Spokane.
